LEAGUE SCHEDULES
All of our Missouri Select Soccer League games are played at Hershewe Sports Complex in Joplin, MO., unless the location is changed due to rescheduling.
Yes, it does cost to play. There are uniform and league fees that may vary depending on if you already have an Iguanas uniform and what the cost is for each team for the league. Please do not let the fees deter you from signing up your child. Just talk to the coaches and we can help you work something out. We do not want a child to not have a chance to play because of money.
Practices times can vary depending on what team your child is on. Your coach will determine your practice days and times. Communicate with your coach if you have an event that conflicts with your practice time.
Practice location may vary by team. When the weather is favorable we practice outside. Your coach will let you know the location of practice and times for practice. Coaches will update parents via the band app if changes to practice times or locations have to change.
All players will need shin guards to play. Please wear them to practice to help prevent injuries. Cleats are not required but are highly recommended for games. For the indoor facitlity tennis shoes or indoor soccer shoes are fine. For games, jerseys, shorts, and socks will be provided with the uniform fee.
Teams are split by age and skill. The ages for our league are U8, U10, U12, U13, and U15. Which teams we have will depend on the ages and number of players that sign up. Players may play up an age group, but not down. If we have enough players for a certain age group we may make multiple teams for that age group. If we have multiple teams in an age group, they are usually split by skill level.
Your coach will be determined by what team you are on. Unfortunately, it's hard to request a coach as the coach you request may not be coaching your players age group.
Players are not guaranteed equal playing time. Everyone will get into the games as long as there is not a discipline issue, but minutes may vary based on the player's skill, or how we match up against our opponent. Our goal is to put players in situations where they can find success, and putting them in game situations where they may struggle can damage their confidence and development.
